The Green Party establishing any presence is the important milestone, any additional seats are a welcome addition but not as impactful.

I have to say -- I am very surprised to see the NDP falling 7%+ behind. I guess people really prefer an utterly incompetent known evil instead of considering the unknown. |

Not really surprised..
in all the buildup to the election i litterally never spoke to a single person who backed the NDP, so who was voting for them?
I probably had a fairly small sample size but i guess the seniors and union workers are the ones backing NDP?

She's puppet anyways, we have nothing to worry about.

Some pundit on news 1130 is saying Clark will be leaving in 2 years.

But definitely, for a party leader to lose out in her own riding is always a bit of a blow. |

Pollsters and political pundits were wrong in Alberta during the election last year. They are wrong again this year in BC.

CBC now calls BC Liberal win, unwilling to commit to majority, though. #bcpoli #bcelxn43
